s ECHTELER'S DESIGN FOR RAJ
MONUMENT.
Echteler's design contemplates a structure
10 iins f.h,int@ sesaEhy-Ese feet high The
lower part constitutes a mausoleum, to have
on interior diameter Of ~flfty-nine feet. The
middle part of the structure is marked by
emblematic groups. On one side North and
South join hands in perpetual peace; the
North places the palm of peace upon the
broken implements of war, while the South
lays ii laurel wreath at the feet OF
an eagle, which hovers above. On the
opposite side a group represents Gen.
Grant in full uniform, leaning on a sword,
surrounded by a family of negroes. The left
face of the die shows the surrender of Lee at
APPROXIMATION. The right side, the portal Of
the Capitol, where Gen. Grant takes the oath
as president before Chief Justice Chase. On
tue pedestal i'll front is the simple legend,
aGen, U. S. Grant" and about its base are
the coats OF arms of the states.
The surrounding statue represents Gen.
Grant on horseback, with flying coat. The
right hand holds a spy glass, pointing COM
mandingly toward the enemy. AT the corr
ners, supporting this statue, are four female
figures, typifying Peacesands Prosperity, In
dnstry and Invention, Commerce, Justice
and Craftsmanship. Two panels in relief
show the general, during a battle, at the
head of a column of infantry; and on the
reverse side, q fierce battle between troops.
The upper parts of the structure are to be
of polished granite. the lower part of rough
stone, and the figures of bronze. Its cost is
placed at 100000, and the time for making,
according to this design, five years.
Among the fourteen designs submitted for
the monument to cover Gen. Grants tomb, in
New York, is one by Joseph Echteler, of
which we present an excellent illustration.

gress against so invincible a Democrat as
Michael c. Kerr. About 1871 the United
States district judgesllip in southern Indiana
became vacant. There were hosts of candi-
dates. Gresham himself strongly recon-
niended his law partner. When the papers
were presented to Grant. the president
glanced over them, caught Gresham's name,
and sent over to the war department for Gen.
Rawiins.
s"Eawlins.n inquired Grant, saint this
Walter Q. Gresham. whose name l end kere,
the same Walt. we had with us before Vicl1s-
burg2n
Rawlins said it was, and in a few hours
Gresham was nominated to be district judge.
In twelve years ON the bench he made an al
most Incompatible record, not one of his
decisions being reversed in all that time.
| His successful administration of the
affairs of the postofice department.
as a member of Arthur's cabinet is
well remembered, and there was no more
sincere mourner than he at tho grave of his
friend and patron. 1t was when Gresham
was postmaster general that his mother,
whom l believe is still living, and a rare,
good old woman, remarked:
"Well, l guess that is about as high rs Walt.
will ever get"
She was satisfied, and so was he. His am
bition led him no higher; instead, he yearned
for his old place on the bench, and it was at
his own request that Arthur, in the closing
| days of his administration, made Gresham q
circuit judge. 1t is a question if his mother
was not wrong, and if his present position be
| not a higher one in the scale of usefulness
than even a cabinet portfolio. A few more
Wabash cases would certainly prove the good
mother no prophet.
Judge Gresham is quite popular in Chicago,
though he persists in retaining a legal resi-
dence in Indiana. He is very approachable,
easy and gracious in his manner toward all,
particularly toward the humble, and as even
tempered as the sun He is q member of
several military organizations, and-though
a.. dignifed judge-can tell a soldier story
with as much relish as any of the boys.
He has a grown son Inc daughter, a pleas
ant home in Chicago, and is very happy with
his books, his bench and his healthful activity,
without hurry on skurry, on 5000 a year for
life. Despite his bad leg and the rheumatism
which Chicago's weather occasionally inflicts
upon it, he Is fond of trudging, through snow
or sleet, from home to court room and back
again. He appears to be a man who is en-.
gagged In getting from life about as much con.
tent and comfort as there is in it for anybody.
Much honor and many years of usefulness
doubtless lie before the man whose name has
become so generally associated with judicial
chastisement of corporate tyranny and wrong
The country evidently yearns to see more
aGreshamism" On the bench.

Mr.. Clark was born in New York state
and did his first railroad work as brakeman
on n gravel train on the Central Railroad of
New Jersey. Then he was conductor on the
Pennsylvania road and after that became
freight agent on the Long Island road when
that line of rail extended only from Flushing
to Long Island City. Sidney Dillon, who
was one of the contractors at work upon tie
extension of the road, liked Clark, and when
the contractor became interested in the
Union Pacific he made his friend general
freight agent. Mr.. Clark was afterward
made general manager of the road, which po-
sition he resigned to take charge Of Mr..
Gould's interest in Omaha, which included q
street railroad system. This is the position
he has resigned to take charge Of the Mis-
| souri, Pacific system.
